Chapter 748 Lan Qi's Compromise on Address

The clock in the Silver Palace ticked away, and the three people and a cat chatted for a good while.

Lan Qi was still trying to communicate with Iphathia.

"But Iphathia, Duke Michael is my senior. If you call me brother, wouldn't that lower his generation?"

There was nothing urgent to do tonight, so Lan Qi and Talia weren't in a hurry to leave.

"His generation is already lower than yours. Just marry my sister."

Iphathia pointed at her sister and stated the facts.

"Let's exclude that premise first. What should our generations be like now?"

Lan Qi thought that the demon's overbearing logic was problematic. How could you state the conclusion first and then propose the hypothesis?

"Uh, you're still my brother."

Iphathia replied.

"Why?"

Lan Qi widened his eyes.

"Because my sister's boyfriend should also be called brother."

Iphathia replied seriously.

Lan Qi held his head.

"Give up, Lan Qi. The Demon King found a lot of demon tutors for Iphathia, but they were all driven crazy by her in the end."

Talia knew that her sister wasn't stupid, but too smart, and no one could easily change her way of thinking.

Perhaps Lan Qi, who had served as the principal of the Purgatory Corridor Academy, had hoped to persuade Iphathia, but it would be difficult in the short term.

"Iphathia, what should we do about the injury on your body?"

Talia stood behind Iphathia, put her hands on Iphathia's shoulders, and asked her sister.

What she was most concerned about was her sister's physical condition.

Just thinking about her sister having to endure the indelible burning sensation twenty-four hours a day made her want to live by her sister's side and take care of her every day.

But she also had the important task of helping Lan Qi and couldn't leave her contractor, Lan Qi.

"Ancient books record that only by obtaining the supreme and strongest wolf blood can the poison of the Blood King Divine Fire be解开(jie kai - undone/released) with its pure and violent vitality."

Iphathia turned her head, looked at the concern in her sister's eyes, and grabbed Talia's hand.

Otherwise, in her current state, once she left the spatial barrier and used a little magic, she would soon be locked onto by the blood clan in Brilda.

"Don't worry about me, sister. I can still fall asleep if I want to. It doesn't affect my rest."

She said to Talia with a relaxed smile.

Her sister had really changed a lot over the years.

Even if some essential things hadn't changed, she could clearly feel that her sister had become much gentler and had developed emotions like humans.

"Is that so... you're really amazing..."

Talia almost forgot her sister's ability to fall asleep in a second.

If it were any other strong person, they might be tortured by the Blood King Divine Fire and unable to sleep at night, but Iphathia was not affected.

This was also inseparable from her sister's own strength.

"You're also amazing, Tata."

Lan Qi looked at them across the table and told Talia not to belittle herself.

He was actually very envious of the sisters' physiques. One could fall asleep no matter what, and the other could eat no matter how much.

Compared to the blood clan's poisonous fire, the genes of the demon royal family were indeed more powerful.

"Then why don't you talk about Hyperion? She's also a demon princess?"

Talia said somewhat unconvinced, thinking that Lan Qi was a bit biased.

"Compared to you, Hyperion is too much like an ordinary girl."

Lan Qi had always been the most respectful person to Hyperion.

"That's because you don't know...!"

Talia stopped talking.

Hyperion could be said to have inherited Iphathia in the opposite direction. The only thing she had in common with Iphathia was that she couldn't be woken up once she fell asleep.

Only Talia knew that Hyperion didn't have Iphathia's sleeping qualities at all. Her sleep quality was far inferior to Iphathia's. Not only that, Hyperion was prone to talking in her sleep and had terrible sleeping posture. Sometimes she would even kiss her wildly in the middle of the night, scaring Talia awake several times.

"..."

This time it was Lan Qi's turn to be speechless.

He accidentally heard everything in his mind.

"Ahhh, forget about it!"

Talia immediately put down Iphathia's hand and went to hook Lan Qi's neck again with a blushing face, wanting to help him do some physical forgetting. It was said that strangling someone to the point of suffocation could make them forget a small piece of memory!

"I didn't hear anything! I really don't know this secret!"

Lan Qi struggled desperately, making a solemn statement, but he couldn't escape at all.

"What are they talking about?"

Iphathia listened to Lan Qi and Talia's chat and always felt that it was intermittent.

She seemed to have missed something and couldn't understand why her sister's emotions were sometimes up and sometimes down.

"They have a private chat channel. You can't hear it, meow."

The cat boss shook its head.

It had protested Lan Qi and Tata's exclusive channel several times, but it was useless.

"What do you mean?"

Iphathia didn't quite understand and poked the black bread.

"Have you felt that their souls are connected? Your sister is like Lan Qi's summon. In fact, the two of them are now in a state similar to signing a life contract. They can communicate with each other through thoughts at any time, and they can't hide their inner voices from each other."

The cat boss explained.

"Oh my god, doesn't that mean they live together every day now?"

Iphathia took the little black cat's paws and shook them as she asked.

"Yes, meow. We live in a two-story villa in the Saint Crete Monastery, but so far they've only held hands at most. There hasn't been any more progress, meow."

The cat boss reported to Iphathia.

"..."

The two people across the table stopped at the same time and looked at the cat boss.

First of all, it was a bit too much for the cat boss to gossip in front of them. Iphathia couldn't hide the excited look in her eyes as she stared at them.

Secondly, how would the cat boss know that they had held hands?

Logically speaking, the cat boss shouldn't have been there on the day they ate in Paris.

They couldn't let others know about what happened that day, otherwise the two of them would really die together.

Just as the two of them were lost in thought.

"Meow, Iphathia, you said that the supreme and strongest wolf blood can solve the burning of the Blood King Divine Fire. Does this wolf refer to the blood of the ancient wolf clan?"

The cat boss felt a hint of coldness coming and its IQ flipped several times, pulling the topic back to the main point.

"Yes, that's what Barton's friend found written on the ancient stone tablet in the Moon God Temple. And it has to be at least an eighth-order peak wolf clan, otherwise its vitality probably won't affect me, let alone dissolve the Blood King Divine Fire that can threaten the eighth-order peak."

Iphathia replied.

The Moon God Temple site, which is now the Saint Crete Monastery, has many treasures preserved from ancient times. The library is one part of it, but in order to keep it safe, only a few people have permission to read it.

But even if you can go through it, it's difficult to read all the ancient books in the Saint Crete Monastery.

"Wolf clan? Where can we find this race?"

Talia asked quickly.

Compared to her own affairs, she immediately put her mind back on her sister.

She had heard of this race in Hyperion and Lan Qi's second shadow world Saint Hall Scoundrel banquet. Lan Qi found books about witches and werewolves in the library of Lichtenstein Castle, solving the mystery.

But correspondingly, the wolf clan had long been extinct, without a clan or驻地(zhu di - garrison/base).

The only ones left were probably a few humans with wolf clan bloodlines who had experienced the phenomenon of返祖(fan zu - reversion to ancestors). They almost didn't even know that they were wolf clans.

It was already very difficult to find such people with rare wolf clan reversion bloodlines, let alone a super-high-level wolf clan.

"Uh, the cat boss and I do know a very strong wolf clan, but unfortunately she's not here."

Lan Qi looked at the cat boss.

"Is she far away?"

Talia grabbed Lan Qi's shoulders and stared at him as she asked.

Her heart was beating incredibly fast. She didn't expect Lan Qi to have everything, and he could immediately give her clues to her sister's antidote.

"She's in the Northern Continent. Don't think about it, meow. You can't find her in a short time. Even if we go north to find her now, it would be good if we could see her in two months. We can only wait until we solve the blood clan problem in the Crete Empire before taking Iphathia to the north to find her, meow."

The cat boss sighed. It actually missed Sid very much, but Sigrid was too far away from them and it would probably be difficult to see her in a short time.

"Doesn't this become a dead cycle..."

Talia lowered her hand with a dazed expression.

They had to first解开(jie kai - release/undo) Iphathia's Blood King Divine Fire in order to allow Iphathia, this powerful eighth-order hero unit, to join the team, increase the combat power to defeat the blood clan, and finally attack Blood Moon City.

But they had to first attack Blood Moon City and solve the crisis in the Crete Empire before they could find the wolf clan in the Northern Continent.

"Or, if we can get Violet's blood, that's also possible."

Iphathia added.

She had already investigated it.

Her situation was not a dead end.

What really surprised Iphathia was that Lan Qi actually said that besides Violet, there were other wolf clans that could meet the conditions.

"The high priest of the Moon God Temple has always been a person with a thin wolf clan bloodline. With the blessing of the Moon God, the bloodline of their ancestors is slowly recovering. Violet is almost a wolf clan."

Iphathia told the two of them the information that Barton had inquired about.

"Is that so...?"

Lan Qi held his chin with one hand and pondered.

"Do you have any conclusions?"

Talia swallowed her saliva, wondering what major discovery Lan Qi had made again.

But looking at his serious appearance, he probably discovered an amazing secret.

"I found that the wolf warriors of the physical系(xi - system) are all light-haired, and the wolf sages of the magic系(xi - system) are all dark-haired."

Lan Qi looked at her and replied.

"Who told you to summarize it!"

Talia slapped him on the head, telling him to wake up.

"In any case, the blood of the Sixth Army God is not easy to obtain."

Iphathia hurriedly raised her hand to persuade, telling her sister not to bully Lan Qi, and said.

They couldn't forget Violet's other identity as the principal of the Saint Crete Monastery. She was also the imperial Sixth Army God, who was granted the Sapphire Seat.

Not to mention what exchange conditions would allow Violet to agree to give him a little blood, just making this request might make Violet suspicious of Landry.

In addition, it couldn't be ruled out that Violet might be controlled by the blood clan. If she was now on the side of the blood clan, as long as they told Violet that they wanted her blood, she would soon understand who Professor Landry was helping to get it for, and then follow the vine to find Iphathia's hiding place.

For this reason, even though Barton had connections in the Saint Crete Monastery, he had never tried to obtain Violet's blood through others, unless a more reliable person appeared.

"It's not completely impossible. If I ask Violet for a little blood to do experiments on the grounds that I need to refine the Philosopher's Stone, that would be a more reasonable reason. Of course, whether she agrees is another matter..."

Lan Qi considered.

"Indeed, she's not that familiar with you now, so she'll probably reject you, meow."

The cat boss agreed.

This was a very easy problem to understand.

It was like when Lan Qi first went to the Northern Continent, when Lan Qi first met Sigrid, if he directly asked Sigrid for blood, Sigrid might be very disgusted and reject him.

But if it was later in the process of getting acquainted, Lan Qi made this request, she would likely propose conditions, and as long as Lan Qi did it, she would be willing to exchange.

As for at the end of the journey, Sigrid would probably not ask anything and directly help Lan Qi.

This was the difference brought about by favorability.

Although Sigrid always said that her favorability was inaccurate on the surface, and she was always drawing big cakes for Lan Qi, the actual situation was that Lan Qi had never actively asked Sigrid for anything. If he really spoke up, he would definitely feel a clear change.

"When Violet comes back, I'll first find out if she wants anything. Even if I'm not that familiar with her, as long as I give her enough trading chips, there's a very high probability that she'll agree."

Lan Qi decided, looking at Iphathia.

Now was the time when Violet was away from Brilda, and she wouldn't be back for another two days.

It was also for this reason that Elsa was attacked.

Lan Qi couldn't help but suspect that the blood clan was manipulating the illusion that a fragment of the remains of the super-ancient divine beast, the Skeleton King, had appeared in the empire, thereby luring Violet to Lake Stabergeen, near the Botswana province.

If this speculation was true, the possibility of Violet being a blood clan controller was greatly reduced.

"Brother, don't take risks. Your safety is the most important thing."

Iphathia nodded repeatedly, very gratefully.

"... Don't worry."

At first, Lan Qi subconsciously wanted to express his discomfort with Iphathia's address, but after seeing Iphathia's innocent and expectant eyes, he ultimately failed to repeatedly deny her.

[Do important things before they become urgent.]

——This was Lan Qi's time management principle, the motto of Purgatory Corridor Academy.

Now the only things that were really about to become urgent were the mission at hand, such as finding teammates, gathering combat power, and healing Iphathia and taking her out of the underground palace.

Anyway, he wouldn't be seeing Hyperion for a while, so no matter how Iphathia got along with him, Hyperion wouldn't find out. Even if she saw Iphathia, she might not be able to recognize that the sister next to Lan Qi was the Prison Mom.

After he finished all the matters in the Crete Empire, he would go back to the Hutton Kingdom with Iphathia and talk to Iphathia about this generation issue.
